Urine-powered generator developed by teenagers showcased at Maker Faire Africa 2012

Four African teenage girls were able to develop a urine-powered generator. 14-year olds Duro-Aina Adebola, Akindele Abiola, and Faleke Oluwatoyin together with 15-year old Bello Eniola, showcased their unique innovation at this year's Maker Faire Africa held in Lagos, Nigeria. The system works by pouring urine into an electrolytic cell to separate the hydrogen. The filtered hydrogen then goes into a water filter for purification where it then be pushed into a gas cylinder.
